I happened upon geocaching last night. I explained it to my husband and we headed out on our frist hunt today. What fun we had! We had 2 finds and I want to go out for more. He wants to stay in for the night so I guess I'll be patient!

Looking forward to getting to know other cachers in the area!

Well welcome aboard Ms Annie.
Ms Kitty (topkitty98), along with others, have done a nice job of placing caches in your area. There are caches of almost every type and difficulty level, well except for rock climbing and repelling, so it was a good place to start. You do know you could have started with some MUCH EASER caches to find don’t you????? [;)] Good job though, you have already found two caches, this great site, and you met TopKitty. Not a bad days work...not bad at all. [;)]
Glad you had fun and I'm here to tell you there is a lot more to come, plus welcome to the Arkansas Geocachers Association. Being a member also makes you eligible to hunt the money mouse. If you catch the mouse you will receive an updated print-up of the caches in the area of the hunt plus you could win cash and/or prizes. Please see the “$100Mouse Game” thread for the details.

Welcome to ArkGeocachers ! There is a wealth of knowledge here in our membership, and everyone has been so gracious to help this ol' mountainboy get started.
You will enjoy the sport, but more than anything else you will enjoy the fellowship.
